Description

Profilometry measurements of series 820 of bimetallic disks taken at 20C using a coordinate measuring machine. Surface data of disks was then fitted to a spherical cap using a least-mean-squares method to determine the characteristic initial curvature and central rise of each disk.

Steps to reproduce

Profilometry data was collected along the surface of the disks with the disks clamped in place. The resulting data was then manually cleaned to remove data points corresponding to clamps and the base of the machine. Raw data was obtained with the use of a Zeiss Duramax Coordinate Measuring Machine. [636512-9200-000 DuraMax 5/5/5/ HTG]
